The current US system is also highly rationed. The rich have access to

I love comments like this.

Unreal.

In my limited personal experience with health care issues, the only thing
anybody has ever asked me was for my BlueCross/BlueShield insurance card.
I've never been asked how much income I make or if I can pay personally
for
"better" care.

Exactly.

In onne of my mom's Continuing Ed classes to renew her RN license years ago,
the teacher stated that the rich got better care in a hospital. My mom
argued the point, they never asked what the persons income was when taking
care of them.
